i am having trouble downloading a casino. error message says not enough room in c drive. this has happened at another place as well. however, i have successfully downloaded a few programs between the failures. is there a setting i can change to make it work? i have tried deleting all of the other programs, so i don't think it actually a space problem. is there another drive i can use that won't damage my computer? thanks.

that reminds me of the time i found out i have three testicles

i went into a pub and said to another guy let's bet the barman we have five balls between us

he asked if i was sure and i said no problem, trust me

so we had ten beers on the bet

he unzipped, threw his bag on the bar and said well there's my one, where's your four?

nice. still doesn't help me. can putting something on d or q drive make the computer explode?

what i was trying to say is that your setup is a little unusual and unforeseeable - i was going to let someone else more knowledgeable answer your new questions

however, i have a Drive C and a Drive F

my Drive C is quite full, so now i load programmes onto Drive F, with a desktop shortcut to open the programme

that works for me

it would seem your Drive Q is other men's Drive C, so i can't see any problem loading onto it - you will probably have to "Browse" to Drive Q / Program Files or / My Documents as most programmes try to go to Drive C automatically; which would explain your error message

sweet, it looks like the q drive works fine. no explosions yet.

Polyorchid: (adj) having three or more testicles



BTW - that's a question in the original version of Trivial Pursuit. I got asked "What is a polyorchid?" when I was like 9 playing the game with my family.

No explosions yet, but if you have too many programs on your q drive, your computer will overheat and melt down.
